Lion House

(Formerly listed as Spring Cottage)

II
Detached cottage. Dated 1829 on top left. Brick front on stone plinth, rendered sides, slate roof with brick end stacks. Single range with rear catslide. Two storeys. Three bays, sixteen-pane sashes with painted keystone and large voussoirs, central opening being smaller and blind with carved lion on sill. Similar windows to ground floor with central door of six flush panels, shallow plain transom light and small projecting segmental wooden porch hood. This is an early example of a style much copied in the area, but is one of the few relatively unaltered cottages of its kind.
